The “Corn Drill Challenge” Went Horribly, Horribly Wrong For This Girl

Firstwe had the ice-bucket challenge, where people were encouraged to dump a bucket of icy water over their heads, then there was the condom challenge, where we were all supposed to do the same with water-filed condoms.

Now – the latest craze to hit the internet – we have the “corn drill” challenge, and to be honest, it looks so dangerous that we should all agree to never try it.

Basically, it involves putting a corn-on-the-cob on a power drill, and then eating it as it spins around. You can see what it should look like here:

It’s not exactly an efficient way to eat sweetcorn, but the internet is the internet, and people do bizarre things. Anyway. One girl’s attempt to complete this challenge has gone particularly viral, as it goes pretty appallingly wrong.

Her hair gets caught in the power drill, and instead of being left with an empty corn-on-the-cob and a lot of sweetcorn on the floor, she winds up with a large bald patch.
